Vitalik Buterin Calls for Human-Centric AI

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is urging the AI industry to slow its race toward fully autonomous, “agentic” systems. He argues that the safest and most effective AI is one that actively involves human oversight, enabling people to guide and refine its outputs. Buterin says he’s more excited about open-weight models with powerful editing capabilities than about tools built purely for independent creation. Looking ahead, he envisions brain-computer interfaces that capture live human feedback and adjust AI responses in real time.
